SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

Installation Instructions

Hydrostatic/Pressure Slabs

High Temperature Kitchen Water

concrete slab subject to hydrostatic pressure

watertight concrete vault

Do not install this unit in any manner

except as described in these instructions.Doing so may result in property damage, personal injury or death.

DO NOT AIR TEST UNIT OR RISER SYSTEM!

For Schier Grease Interceptor Installations - Failure to follow this guidance voids your warranty

cold water supply line

high temperature effluent ( > 150º F)

approved backflow prevention assembly

DTV (drain water tempering valve)

directly connected indirectly connected

If water is entering the interceptor at excessive temperature (over 150º F), a drain water tempering valve (DTV) and approved backflow prevention assembly must be installed. Most state and local plumbing codes prohibit water above 150º F being discharged into the sanitary sewer. Water above 150º F will weaken or deform PVC Schedule 40 pipe, poly drainage fixtures like interceptors and erode the coating of cast iron (leading to eventual failure).

Installation instructions and additional components are included with the interceptor. Read all instructions prior to installation. This interceptor is intended to be installed by a licensed plumber in conformance with all local codes.

If your dishwashing sink(s) discharges into a floor drain/sink (drain), you must regulate the flow into the drain to avoid an overflow of water onto the kitchen floor. This can be done by installing a valve or flow restriction cap on the sink piping that discharges into the drain. See drawing for guidance. For detailed guidance on indirect connections, go to: webtools.schierproducts.com/Technical_Data/Indirect_Connections.pdf

When installed under a hydrostatic slab (slab designed to withstand upward lift, usually caused by hydrostatic pressure) interceptor must be enclosed in a watertight concrete vault.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

Install unit on solid, level surface in contact with the entire footprint of unit base

Fully Support Base of Unit

For above grade installations ensure heavy inlet and outlet piping (such as cast iron or long runs) is properly supported or suspended during the entire installation process to prevent connection failure or damage to bulkhead fittings.

Support Inlet and Outlet Piping

pipe supports

DO NOT COMPACT BACKFILL

For Schier Grease Interceptor Installations - Failure to follow this guidance voids your warranty

Interceptors and risers are not designed to withstand water table height in excess of the top of the unit when buried (see figure). If it is possible for this to occur, install the interceptor and risers in a water-tight concrete vault or backfill with concrete or flowable fill (wet concrete and flowable backfill should be poured in stages to avoid crushing the interceptor). At risk areas include but are not limited to tidal surge areas, floodplains and areas that receive storm water. Great Basin™models that are direct buried in high water table scenarios must be installed with an anchor kit.

Grease Pencil

Determine Trim Length (round up all fractions to next inch). Only one FCR2 riser per cover will need to be cut.

NOTE: If trim length is 0 or less, no cutting is required. Trimming risers using these guidelines will result in risers that are 0-2" shorter than the exact riser height needed. Cover Adapter adjustability will allow for final adjustments to grade.
